5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=36012.41
2) x%=216.07
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
100%/x%=36012.41/216.07
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 216.07 is what percent of 36012.41
